I made this card with inspiration from Facilitator Stephanie Anderson Ladd, who was teaching about the archetypes of Maiden-Mother-Queen-Crone.Ā I found images of myself at the first three phases of my life, and left space for when I feel like I’m in the Crone phase (still happily in Queen, thank you very much!).
Who are you?
I am the one who has been through two stages of life and is currently in the third one right now.
I am the one who has the same bright smile throughout my life story.
I am the one who is one soul, one body, one journey, many changes, many stories.
I am the one who was born, traveled through Childhood and through Motherhood and who now resides in the stage before Elderhood/Crone.
I am the one who looks back on my life and sees one thread that ties my story together.
I am the one who looks forward to the next stage, and the stage after that.
Dear Anne Marie, I love your writings! I am grateful you share them with us, it is so inspirational. With the warmest greetings, Trudy
this is so lovely to see . Thank you for sharing your life. I have recently had the intuition to start collecting photos and copy them to tell a story, as I am in the crone stage and there is it so full of surprises and meanings and reflections.

I am fairly new to this group but I love the energy and attention you give to this and gather such love and caring. Best, Nina
